My PC crashed. After getting it going again from boot startup screen, but the Shut-down menu and audio menu had gone, and so had the the update Manager. I tried the repair facility and it downloaded a lot of files, but the updater and shut-down menu and audio menu have not re-appeared. I have to use Ctrl/Alt/Del every time for shut down options. The Dash icon doesn't bring the Updater.

My query at the terminal screen command prompt says that I have the latest updater, but I can't find how to launch it. I am running 12.04, which is now obsolete, and need to upgrade to the highest available current LTS version. Hopefully this will not only bring my version up to date (without losing other items I have installed!) but also fix the menu problem at the same time.

Can anybody please tell me how to launch the updater?
